I do not remember similar entity except the CIRCLED TIMES operator, which
is introduced as either &otimes; or &CircleTimes;
If that does not work for you, you could fix a big size of an ordinary
times via style and next to use mrows for structure.
Example for structure
<mrow>Firsts elements</mrow>
<mo>&times;</mo>
<mrow>Rest of your elements</mrow>
I prepared a XML document with more than 2300 MathML 2.0 entities in the
form of table with Unicode, name, ***gliph***, basic entity and
alternative entities. Each one in a different color for easing visual
matching.
It is searchable via "search" command on your browser.
I prepared it for use on the CanonMath language but if MathML WG agrees I
could submit it for was stored in some part of the W3C website for benefit
of users.
